[solved] Update Issue II

After an update from core-8.5.80.19_0+180-Ubuntu_14.04-amd64.tar.gz to core-8.5.81.197_0+27-Ubuntu_14.04-amd64.tar.gz i get the following error
“WARNING: Database version (8,5,90,2153381888,66) is newer than the server version (8,5,81,0,67)”
The core-8.5.81.197_0+27-Ubuntu_14.04-amd64.tar.gz is the latest Paket from 3.2.2018

What did you try so far? You either could delete the offending entry from the versions table in the database, of pass --ignore-database-version-conflict to the kopano-server binary.

from man kopano-server:

--ignore-database-version-conflict
Ignore version information from the database. Kopano will normally not start the server if the database has a newer version than the kopano-server
binary. This makes sure you cannot downgrade your server binary while keeping the same database. If you know what you're doing, you can use this
option to bypass the start-up version check of the database.

you database version was indeed higher “8,5,90,…” is higher than “8,5,81,…” after all. Since you had 8.5.90 before you must have been using one of the earliest builds after branching 8.5. we lowered the version number the next day, but those builds were online for a day or so.

@Sinux, if you use nightly-builds productively, that’s not really wise.
As you may have experienced, problems like this will happen - accept it, or get a commercial build.
If you find an issue, report it, but refrain from blaming the devs - you might end up with somebody @ Kopano deciding to stop the community-editions.
Free Software does not mean, you have a natural right on impeccable ready meals.

I would also add that Kopano is actually very very good at providing nightly BUILDS. They could simply just publish the source code and let you build it from scratch. They actually go through the effort of providing free nightly builds for a numerous amount of platforms.

In return the users (I am a community user too) have the moral obligation (at least that’s the way I see it) to provide feedback and help to move the product forward. Part of it is also to find bugs that occasionally may occur as the software moves forward.

I really can’t see anything wrong with this and, instead, I am extremely supportive and grateful to Kopano for the current solution.
